The gut-brain connection in children with Dr. Bridget Callaghan
About this episode
In today’s episode we discuss the connection between our brain and our gut. Have you ever had a “gut feeling” or butterflies in your stomach? Ever had an upset stomach when you were nervous? There really is a connection between our gut and our brain. In this episode we discuss whether probiotics are helpful to boost our gut health, how our microbiota is formed as infants, the link between mental health and our gut health and the role of diet in maintaining a healthy gut.
